Latrell Mitchell and long-term partner Brielle Mercy have revealed they will be welcoming a fourth child into the world. <\/p>\n
The couple made the announcement via social media, sharing photos of ultrasounds and Ms Mercy\u2019s baby bump on her Instagram page.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause 3 kids isn\u2019t crazy enough,\u201d the post caption reads. <\/p>\n
The couple already have two daughters, Inala and Aleena, and had their first son, Kobe, in December 2023. <\/p>\n
A wave of congratulatory messages has flown in from the NRL community following the announcement. <\/p>\n
\u201cA new little Rabbitoh on the way,\u201d Mitchell\u2019s side the South Sydney Rabbitohs posted on Instagram. <\/p>\n
\u201cCongratulations Latrell and Brielle.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCongrats guys,\u201d St George Illawarra Dragons enforcer and former Rabbitohs teammate Hame Sele said. <\/p>\n
Another ex-Rabbitoh Taane Milne also commented, leaving a heart eyes emoji. <\/p>\n
Tayla Montoya, wife of Bulldogs winger Marcelo Montoya, and Courtney Cook, wife of Dragons hooker Damien Cook, also left celebratory messages on Ms Mercy\u2019s post.<\/p>\n
\u201cCongratulations guys,\u201d they both wrote in separate posts. <\/p>\n
The announcement comes after a big week on the field for Mitchell, who played a starring role in a historic moment during the Rabbitohs\u2019 clash with the Roosters last Friday.<\/p>\n
It was Mitchell who stormed into open pastures off the back of a David Fifita offload, setting up Alex Johnston to break Ken Irvine\u2019s try-scoring record. <\/p>\n
The 28-year-old Mitchell is settling back into life in the centres after six seasons at fullback for the Bunnies. <\/p>\n
Last season, Mitchell only managed 11 appearances for the injury-ravaged Rabbitohs, as his campaign was marred with quad, hamstring and foot issues. <\/p>\n
